RBC Flashcards
Two groups of phospholipid
Choline phospholipid and aminophospholipid
choline phospholipid is composed of
phosphatidyl choline and sphygomyelin
aminophospholipid is composed of
phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylserine
factors produce resting biconcave
-elastic force
-hydrostatic pressure
-electric force
-surface tension
alteration of blood lipid concentration
spur cell anemia
PBS show abundant sharp speculated red cells
zieve syndrome
rbc show multiple and blunted projection in association with low blood cholesterol
abetalipoproteinemia
acquired disorder wherein diarrhea is seen Ecoli 0157
HUS (hemolytic uremic syndrome)
bleeding HELLP
DIC (Disseminated intravascular coagulation)
distinguished by pentad of hemolytic anemia with abc fragmentation
TTP (thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura)
deficiency of metalloproteinase as ADAMTS13
TTP
obstruction of microvasculature to the flow of erythrocytes
MAHA
patient with Mediterranean heritage
thalassemias
sickle cell anemia is also called
meniscocytosis or depranocytic anemia
test to differentiate Hb S from Hb D
ferrohemoglobin solubility test
second most common glycolytic disorder that produce hemolysis
glucose phosphate isomerase deficiency
4th common enzyme deficiency leading to hemolysis
pyrimidine -5- nucleotidase deficiency
test to distinguished G6PD A from B
Electrophoretic mobility
inefficient splicing of RNA to mRNA
thalassemia
Iron Deficiency Anemia
- increased iron demands
- insufficient intake, inadequate
absorption - chronic blood loss
- abnormal intrinsic iron metabolism
- lead interfere with the breakdown
of RNA by inhibiting the enzyme
pyramidine 5’ nucleotidase, causing
the accumulation of denatured RNA
lead poisoning
- hepcidin increases during
inflammation, and inhibits the
release of iron (blocks ferroportin)
Anemia of chronic
inflammation
- impaired response of marrow to
anemia - shortened red cell survival
Anemia of chronic
inflammation
- iron remains around mitochondria
waiting for porphyrin
Sideroblastic Anemia
